OK, first off, I have been around here for awhile but I dont post much- I undertand the deal with the womens forum- with that said, I have a question from my girlfriend. She and I work out together and I am planning on starting the old school 3 days a week program that allot of the guys are talking about on the training forum. Will it be ok if she is on the same program? She likes to lift heavy and eats really well(uses Fitday too)- but she has been getting conflicting info as to what she should eat and cals per day,how much cardio is needed,etc...
She is on an Iso-Caloric diet like me which for her means 1560 cals a day(175g pro,140g/carbs,60g/fat)- is this too low? Oh, she is 5'5" at around 130-135 pounds. I'm not sure of her BF%. She wants to lose BF(who dosen't) and gain some muscle. She has a body similiar to Katie Holmes, she isn't fat or chubby but she has a little layer of fat over her tummy(wow, just like me,hehe). I wish she would come on here herself but she isn't into the message board thing so I pretty much tell her what you ladies say. Thing is, she gets confused by what she should be eating so she feels like it isn't working. What can I tell her in the way of diet that you think will produce some results. I have done allot of research and I have been searching through your posts but I would love to hear any advice you could give. She really enjoys the weights but she HATES cardio(except swimming and that machine at the gym that looks like you are cross country skiing)- I just want to see her gain some progress so she dosent give up. Thanks......
